The next morning, Su tells the doctor that she is still alive. She tells him that her grandmother, who raised her, once told her that her hometown was near the border with Luofeng, a village that has been totally wiped out by the plague. Su says that she and her grandmother are the only two survivors of the plague, but that she still doesn't know why she survived. She says that the reason she survived the plague is that she was given the poison by her grandmother's blood. Su thanks the doctor for the dinner and the wine, but he warns her that the medicinal wine might be too strong for her. She asks the doctor to arrange her funeral, and the doctor says that he was a bit hasty in prescribing the wine. Su asks if she has found any sisters, but the doctor tells her that they have not yet found them. He also says that Sister Su's poison can be cured
